Abstract
This study investigates the Web-based information retrieval pattern of the doctoral students in universities in Kerala. Structured questionnaires were used for data collection from a representative sample of 300 doctoral students. It is revealed that majority of the students use e-journals and e-books. E-mail, World Wide Web (WWW) and Wikis are the most widely used Internet services by the students. Lack of full-text e-resources, lack of full-fledged Internet connection and lack of awareness on advanced search methods and techniques hinder the use of Web-based information resources. This study provides an insight into the current Web-based information retrieval pattern of doctoral students in India.
